Registration of title

how is it going to apply on case of right acquired through an unregistered will? through which document or deed can i register my right acquired through unregistered will?
prabhakar singh (Expert) 11 April 2013
Since a WILL does not pass title or possession at once but come into operation
as testamentary succession superseding laws of succession,it is open to testator to go
or not to go far it's registration.

After death of the testator if an executor was appointed in the will grant of probate can be sought under Indian Succession Act;
in case no executor was appointed then letter of administration can be obtained by the beneficiary under the same Act.In presidency twons these are must,else where optional.

Where it is optional mutation of records would be possible by proving the will by filing affidavit of attesting witnesses of the will.

if probate is not mandatory in my area then can i get a clear title on the right acquired from an unregistered will of property just by mutation in nagar nigam?
prabhakar singh (Expert) 11 April 2013
Yes! certainly without doubt.

The benefit of obtaining a probate or a LoA
is that the WILL gets proved for ever and against everyone in the world as they are treated judgements in rem not judgement in personam.

what is the remedy if the unregistered will is ambiguous regarding the division of area of house between heirs?
prabhakar singh (Expert) 11 April 2013
Heirs have option to amicably interpret the will else
the aggrieved may file Civil suit according to his interpretation to protect his right under will against others and Civil court would decide as to what was the intention of testator.

can we make an appeal in the civil court against the order passed by the commissioner?
prabhakar singh (Expert) 11 April 2013
The wisdom lies in going to Civil Court forth after order of Municipal Board as neither the Board nor would Commissioner have a final say over a Civil dispute of rights,as doing so would save litigation time consumed before commissioner.

Mutation certificate can always be challenged before the High Court in writ jurisdiction.

Mutation can even be challenged before local civil court but there is no such facts in the query which may necessitate such excercise.
